Crystal structures and anti-oxidant capacity of (E)-5-benz-yloxy-2-{[(4-chloro-phen-yl)imino]-meth-yl}phenol and (E)-5-benz-yloxy-2-({[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)eth-yl]iminium-yl}meth-yl)phenolate.

ABSTRACT: The title Schiff base compounds, C₂₀H₁₆ClNO₂ (I) and C₂₄H₂₂N₂O₂ (II), were synthesized via the condensation reaction of 2-amino-4-chloro-phenol for (I), and 2-(2,3-di-hydro-1H-indol-3-yl)ethan-1-amine for (II), with 4-benz-yloxy-2-hy-droxy-benzaldehyde. In both compounds, the configuration about the C=N imine bond is E. Neither mol-ecule is planar. In (I), the central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 49.91 (12) and 53.52 (11)° with the outer phenyl and chloro-phenyl rings, respectively. In (II), the central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 89.59 (9) and 72.27 (7)°, respectively, with the outer phenyl ring and the mean plane of the indole ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.011 Å).
